Kuyt to Inter .... Hope that doesn't happen, one of our best players and has been awesome for us. I really hope itvfootball on twitter are wrong with this rumour.

That was a regurgitated rumour from last year mich all the quotes are the same from when Rafa and Inter were interested, it isn't real don't worry

My bad

Still the slightly worrying rumour of Bellamy returning though...

I'm all for Bellamy in honesty

it'll be a free deal can play on the wing or up front and if he won't take a wages cut he can tax them off of N'gog and Poulsen til they leave

i think it would only be for a year and from Jamie Carragher's autobiography everyone liked him

Very marmite like character isn't he?

Love him or hate him, my problem is I think he is too fiesty, but hey maybe that is something we need someone not scared to have a go at the ref. It seems since Mascherano left we haven't got anyone who will moan to the ref about decisions.

Also think, Like Carroll he is prone to getting sidetracked and has behaviour issues and could distract eachother, but could also bring the best out of eachother.

Still unsure, but 100 grand a week wages, is what is being rumoured and that is very steep.

N'gog and Poulsen expected to leave this week, with N'gog possibly going to Bolton.

Excited about Coates, hope he comes to us!

I'd much prefer Coates/Cahill and Jarvis

don't know that we need a new striker atm but it would be preferable to have one I'm just gutted we didn't get Connor Wickam he would have been perfect

Well with N'gog going we have Carroll (who is very prone to injuries) and Suarez as Kuyt is now mainly used as a winger. So I would say we need a backup striker.

Not sure on Jarvis though. Let's just see what the next week brings us ay

Lmao poor woody.

The rumours I have heard is Kuyt could go to Inter and his agent is trying to sell him that move.

We have made tentative enquiries about Bellamy on loan.

We are about to put a bit in for Sebastian Coates, and £10M should buy him.

In the games I watched him in the Copa America he had the passing ability of Hansen and the heading ability of Hyypia.

My first choice centre back, and would easily break in ahead of Carra within a season IMO.

Here we go:

Rory Smith - The Mirror
Via @EdwardPinon: if City don't beat Liverpool's offer today, Coates goes to Anfield. Agent/Dad in England for talks. #mcfc #LFC

Paul Tomkins - The Times RT @ArgentinaFW: Coates' father is in England negotiating the deal. If it is resolved, the player will travel there today or tomorrow

LFC Transfer Specs
Looks like we're very close to get Sebastian Coates

Coates has EU blood in him so getting a work permit is no bother.

Can we beat City to a player, I think yes from Coates himself "I will surely wear the historical shirt of a great club soon" which rules them out

Also his clubs vice president has said Coates "will go to LFC"

Now these things can be lost in translation, but it is very good news!

6M Euro. Hahhaa steal.

Really dont understand this Nasri to City crap.

There is no way we wouldnt pay 24m. We are paying that for Mata.

It's players like Nasri that can win you leagues. Just look at David Silva, take him out and I think they'd fall to pieces. Been the best single player so far in the prem by a mile.

Okay yes I know City will give him stupid money and City can keep buying players but there are so many perks with Chelsea too! Not like we are skint or nowt!

We have two French internationals in Malouda and Anelka, He will be unique at Chelsea whereas City have Silva - Not to mention Chelsea is so much closer and he has settled into Arsenal/London.

City may well give him 200k or whatever, We could give him 100k-130k and could even cough up 150k if necessary but sometimes its not all about the money.

Cech v Hart - I'd just favour Cech

Cole beats Clichy
Terry beats Kompany
Alex/Ivanovic beat Lescott
Bosingwa/Richards tie

Essien beats De Jong

Malouda v Johnson, just Malouda
Lampard murdered Barry
Silva beats Kalou

Drognando v Kuntevez - Havent seen neither play together. But all 4 are of the best quality.

I give that a 6-1 win to Chelsea.

and 6-0 if we Had Nasri against Silva.

It is just about money, it has to be.

He had the chance to join United, the best team in England.. Fact... but instead he chooses to join the filthy rich 3rd placed team in the country, and comunity shield runners up to who other than United.

All this after previously saying that he would not leave arsenal for money reasons..

City is a good move for Nasri I think.

City have a better squad than Chelsea, and IMO will finish above them.

What Chelsea have now is players growing old together.

Roman needs to open his chequebook again, which to be fair he looks like he is doing with Mata and Lukaku for a combined 40M.

Who else have Chelsea signed this summer?

Fourth Official
Liverpool and Nacional have agreed a fee for defender Sebastian Coates #LFC

This fella is very reliable.





Oh I'm getting good at this transfer thing

Cheeky

MCFC are trying to hijack #LFC's move for Coates. His agent (dad) is talking to both clubs.

Sod off City, you already beat us for Steffan Savic, let us have a CB!

Latest is:

Bid confusion: I've spoken to Nacional. There is an offer on the table from #LFC, but it has not been accepted yet. "Under consideration".

Insane RT @RobHarrisUK: 3-year deal for Eto'o in Russia at Anzhi Makhachkala - expected to get €20M/yr. Ronaldo earns around €12M/yr at Real

Madness!!!!!!

Yaya Toure earns more than Ronaldo also! Savage eh!

Toure is on 200k a week, ronaldo 250k and eto'o will be on 340k

It's ridiculous, all about the money nowadays.

Scandal.
